Smart-Phone Attacks and Defenses Added: Monday, 2 May 2005 Publisher: Microsoft Research Category: Wireless The first proof-of-concept smart-phone worm, Cabir, has recently appeared. This is among the first signs of the expansion of the Internet security threats into other networks like telecom networks by the means of interoperating devices, e.g., smart-phones that are endpoints to both networks. These threats are especially alarming because as smart-phones become prevalent (according to market forecast, 30 millions smart-phones will be shipped in 2004, and more than 100 millions in 2007), and as their powerfulness and functionality reaches that of PCs, a fast- and wide-spreading smart-phone worm or virus could cause the large cohort of compromised smart-phones to cripple the telecom infrastructure and jeopardize critical call centers, such as 911, resulting in national crises.
